Hi @hbshin ,

 

The categorization is done either by IP address or via the Common Name from the SSL certificate or Server Name Indication (SNI).

Hi @kiwi 

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

i understood SNI and CN Name

 

Could you explain more about The categorization by IP Address ?

 

How are URLs categorized by IP address?

 

Thanks.

Hi @hbshin ,

 

How PAN-DB works

 

The PAN-DB Core, located in the Palo Alto Networks threat intelligence cloud, has a full URL and IP database to cover web security needs.

Millions of URLs and IPs are classified in a variety of ways. In addition to the “Multi-language classification engine” and the “URL change request from users,” PAN-DB receives malicious URL and IP information from WildFire.
